The original urban assault tire, designed to take the abuses of the most aggressive street style riders. Bead-to-bead tread provides durability and traction whether you're dropping staircases, grinding rails or riding in your local skate park. TECHNOLOGY: Single ply, one layer of nylon wrapped from bead to bead, a single ply tyre conforms well to the terrain and is lighter weight. 70a, long tread life and low rolling resistance. HOOKWORM (Black/White, dual compound) Dual Compound technology has taken the HookWorm tread pattern to the next level. Maxxis has handcrafted the outer (white) edges of the tread pattern in a soft, sticky compound for optimal cornering and vert. ramp performance. The inner (black) tread is a harder compound that rolls fast and wears long. By utilising two distinct rubber compounds, Maxxis has taken full advantage of the handling characteristics of each individual section of the tread pattern. TECHNOLOGY: Single ply, one layer of nylon wrapped from bead to bead, a single ply tyre conforms well to the terrain and is lighter weight. Dual-compound, 62a in the centre for low rolling resistance, 60a edges for excellent grip.
